This video is a good reminder for me to take a break from the news for the sake of my sanity.

[@stacieholt]

My son has your exact same thumbs! I think they’re cute.

[@allisondawrant]

So cool!

[@carolwetherington429]

Alison, I love your videos. I find myself thinking that next you’ll do something… then sometimes you do, but I want to try something else. Such inspiring, idea filled videos. You are a blessing,!

[@allisondawrant]

Thankyou Carol

[@ginainfantino411]

Thank you for sharing your “thumbs” with us every time you play art! ❤️. And thank you for sharing that story about your thumbs. You are a brave woman. 😘

[@cathydawe5944]

I love your Windows of Hope and all the inspiration in this video. 💗Congratulations on your 1 year KZbinversary! And well over 11K subscribers! It has been absolutely amazing to witness the community you have created here. This channel is very special and unique, full of beauty and inspiration. Just like you!

[@allisondawrant]

Thankyou beautiful friend❤️

[@sylvieauguste280]

The movie about the artist Maudie is wonderful. I loved it so much and I’m French. The person who criticate your cute thumbs is certainly perfect, more than a top model, don’t worry about these ridiculous comments. You are a kind and very sensitive artist and woman :-)

[@LynnLBE]

Oh I loved Maudie SO SO SO much❣️❣️❣️❣️

[@vanessaspeed2312]

You are the best ❤ sad that people have to highlight unnecessary things. Much care from Sydney 🎉

[@allisondawrant]

Haha. Thanks for the sweet uplifting comment!

[@SueKivley]

I think your thumbs are cute! 😘 I can't believe people can be so rude. I'm glad you don't let such things bother you. Always happy to see one of your videos. Your 2021 circle paintings make me think of dream catchers.

[@allisondawrant]

Ah yes- dream catchers. I love that you see those in my “windows of hope” artwork. Great idea for a future painting… and thanks for the thumbs up comment!:)

[@Ellie.12866]

My mother had thumbs identical to yours 👍 They indicate a people who have tremendous determination and will. Your fingers signify someone who is very intuitive or even psychic.

[@allisondawrant]

Thank you for sharing this, that is neat about your mother sharing my thumb type! I like to believe I am very intuitive and I think my family members and friends would agree I am quite determined too. So cool.

[@janc6495]

@Ellie.12866 I think it is so cool that you shared this!!!!

[@Ellie.12866]

@@janc6495 I could say more is she showed us her palms 😉

[@momma2cavalierssf]

I love watching your creative process, and I'm so grateful for how generously you share information. My mom has thumbs like yours and I noticed them because it made me miss her! I'm sorry someone felt entitled to be unkind, but I'm glad you don't let people like that dull your sparkle.

[@allisondawrant]

Thank you so much!

[@marshakopeika9671]

HAPPY 10,000 PEOPLE‼️‼️‼️‼️‼️‼️

Thank you so much!

[@Messiah1976]

Sarah Rene Clark created those fantastic Color Cubes I believe. So gorgeous blows my mind!!

[@allisondawrant]

One artist? I’ll have to read the package- that is amazing . Will have to tag her in my description .

[@kimgoranson9954]

I love your Art Deck. What a great idea. I will purchase it later today.

[@allisondawrant]

Thankyou ❤️

[@ginabadeaux9319]

I love you, and your teaching ,thank you from Everett Washington

[@allisondawrant]

Thanks for watching!

[@marypompette3969]

I never even noticed …but when you mentioned this today I laughed out loud. Thank heaven for your big toe thumbs!!!

[@allisondawrant]

Haha. Yes!! 😂

[@annehebert6959]

OMG Allison - you mentioned that your Grandparents are in Middleton NS. I was born there - never lived there though because my Dad was military and we moved a lot. But I lived in Berwick for three years recently before moving to Oakbank Mb. I still have relatives in Middleton - my Aunt and Uncle still live there & I have a sister in Bridgetown. I go back every year to visit. I just love NS so much - I wish I could move back there...BTW - I love Maudie's art...

[@allisondawrant]

Oh my gosh. What a small world. I don’t have any family there now with the exception of distance relatives and my aunt and uncle own a cottage on the Bay that they visit every summer. I miss it so much. Thanks for sharing our connection❤️

Congratulation for one year on KZbin 🎉

[@allisondawrant]

Thank you so much 😀

[@jlm517rocks]

each time you apologize for assuming you're off topic, you remind me of my own digressions as explanatory embellishments, but dear allison, do not think to apologize further, as yr comments, like your art, make the entire video a work of art. Ty.

[@allisondawrant]

Thanks

[@HammyMamma]

I have brachydactyly in my left thumb only. I noticed your thumbs right away because I have it as well. My husband calls it my “micro-thumb”! I don’t think it’s hereditary. It’s a congenital defect called brachydactyly. 🥰

[@allisondawrant]

Thanks for sharing!!

[@janc6495]

Not a defect in my eyes! Thats what makes us all special.🥰😍🤩🥰

[@purplecottoncandyarts]

I love your videos. So glad i discovered you! I'm sorry if I missed it, what gold material did you encircle your windows of hope with? Was it Daniel Smith or Beam? Which do you like most for circling those? Thanks in advance.

[@allisondawrant]

Hello! Oh, for the "Windows of Hope" artwork, I used Golden fine gold paint as well as Irridescent copper (fine) , both acrylic paints. Thanks for your kind comment about my videos.

[@purplecottoncandyarts]

@@allisondawrant thanks a lot!

[@GeorgetteYoung]

Good Morning! In one of your videos, you posted the name of the class that you took on creating your own Oracle cards. Can you repost that? Please?

[@allisondawrant]

Yes, I took several classes but the most comprehensive ones are here: www.alenahennessy.com/make-your-own-oracle-deck/ and cathynichols.com/products/1474509

[@aliceaiken3162]

My name is Alice. When my husband was still with me. His name was Wayne I always joked about Wayne's World and Alice in Wonderland.

[@allisondawrant]

Ha. That’s very cute. I’m sorry Wayne is no longer with you. What a fun memory to have.

[@arizonanala9150]

You mentioned on Instagram that you have a YT video regarding watercolor on canvas. I haven't been able to find it. Is it possible to please share the link when you have time?

[@allisondawrant]

hi! I recorded and posted a video that showed my recent mini watercolour collection on canvas- but it wasn’t a teaching video if that’s what you were hoping for? I share some tips and tricks but I don’t show the process start to finish. Feel free to email me if I can help though- [e-mail]

[@allisondawrant]

Sent you an email reply. hope that helps, Laurie.

[@arizonanala9150]

Yes. Thank you so much!

[@kathytincler2446]

Congrats on 10,000! I couldn't find the 'Almanac' deck link. Tfs

[@allisondawrant]

Thanks for heads up as I’d forgotten to add it in. it’s there now:)

[@elaineg60]

You should see my thumbs.😂. I was born with nail-patella syndrome. I have NO nails, and yes, stubby, double-jointed thumbs. 😁. Believe me, the 60’s were brutal when it came to being a “different” child. I also have no kneecaps, most of my joints are what you’d call “double-jointed”, (although at my age it’s. Called “ARTHRITIS”. 😂). There’s many other things that aren’t visible..unfortunately, I’m racing against blindness.

[@allisondawrant]

Thanks for sharing Elaine. I’m sorry to hear that your vision is affected. I appreciate your support on here🥰
